Tato série provází osudy charismatického, ale psychopatického podvodníka, který si buduje svůj život na lžích a identitních krádežích. Sledujeme jeho nebezpečné hry s osudem a snahu uniknout spravedlnosti, zatímco se pohybuje ve světě bohatých a bezohledných. Napětí roste s každým jeho krokem, který ho žene hlouběji do propasti morálního úpadku. Jedná se o fascinující ponor do temné psychologie a zrcadlo společenských iluzí.

When a troubled young runaway arrives on Tom Ripley's French estate, he is drawn into a world he thought he'd left behind, the seedy underworld of Berlin and kidnapping plots, lies and deception. Ripley becomes the boy's protector as a friendship develops between the young man with a guilty conscience and the older one with no conscience at all.
Remember Dickie Greenleaf? Tom Ripley killed him. The only thing is he keeps ringing Tom up. Enough to make even a cool cucumber like Ripley uneasy. This book immerses the reader in Tom's world at Belle Ombre with the lovely Heloise and the very shadowy world of art forgery and murder.
"Suave, agreeable, and completely amoral ... Tom Ripley stops at nothing--not even murder--to accomplish his goals."--Jacket
